Kind of a cool Pittsburgh murals story and a generous link from Sally Keelson here.

There's a new mural still under development on the North Side with a civil rights theme. The key component of the mural is the iconic Trayvon Martin "hoodie" photo with a layer showing the African land mass, pretty cool execution:

Doubly exciting to see that the Pittsburgh's Jordan Miles and the mysteriously disappearing Mountain Dew have taken a place within the presentation. (Jordan Miles was severely beaten by three Pittsburgh police who claimed their action was justified by what they thought was a gun, but turned out to be a Mountain Dew. Curiously, there was never any evidence of Mountain Dew - no bottle or can.
